You are not alone! Medical doctors claim that low sex drive is the most common sexual complaint they receive, affecting somewhere between 30-40% of women.
A woman´s sex drive is infinitely more complex, and completely different, than that of a man. Aside from the biological complexities that control sex drive, women are also greatly influenced by a number of other factors. Age, illness, stress, hormones, pain, attitudes around sex during upbringing, health of the relationship, fatigue, contraceptives, low self-image, and the quality of touch and sex are just a few of the other factors that come into play!
Here are a few home-fix-it ideas on how to get out of the slump:
Be frank; If you are bored, let your husband know! Communication is the most important part of any relationship, and talking about your sex life gives your partner an opportunity to be an active participant in improving it!
Try a change of scenery. If you always have sex in the bedroom, opt instead for the couch, the living room floor, take a shower for two, take a blanket outside on a sunny day, or get a little better acquainted with the kitchen counter! A change of environment may be all you need to make things a little more exciting and kick-start your libido back into action.
Try some new positions. Take a look at our Sex Positions Guide for some fabulous fun-filled ideas!
Changing the ways, times, and places that you have sex will at least make things a little more exciting, a hopefully get you more revved up for your next sexual encounter with the man you love. If none of these solutions seem to be cutting it, consider talking to your medical doctor to see if some form of counseling or treatment would be of help.
